American Farmers.

Very few people appreciate the
importance of American farming IN
terest. We hear the everlasting
hum of our manufactures night and
day, and every orator who talks
about the splendor of this country
refers in the most glowing language
to our work shops and mills and looms
and forges and trip. hammers. But
the farmer is seldom heard Of He
sits quietly in the background Dy the
side of his plow and thrashing ma
chine as though he were of little &C
count.
We can easily recognize his value
to the nation, however, by few fig
ures which may startle our readers
unless they have already looked into
the subject with some care. Of our
entire exports eighty four per cent.
comes from the ground and from
mines, forests and fisheries, while
only sixteen per cent. IS the product
of machinery. The cotton of the
south and the grain OF tue west hold
a dual control over our national
prosperity. The one keeps the spin
dies of England busy, and the other
feeds the world. Europe has, there
fore, almost as much interest in the
products of American soil as we
have ourselves. A loss of these two
crops for a single season would ere
ate panic throughout the civilized
globe.
There are in America over 1000,
600 farms, large and small. They
cover nearly 100000, 900 acres of i'm.
proved land; their total value is
something like $4,000, 100000.
These figures are not, OF course com
prehensible. They simply convey
the idea OF vastness of area and
equal vastness of Importance. The
estimated value of the years product
is between $2,000,000,000 and SO,
000,000,000. What America takes
out Of the ground, therefore, has
much to do with the prosperity and
happiness of the nation. What helps
the farmer helps us all, and what
hurts him hurts us all. HIS we'll
titled acres are the heart Of the re-
public. and each pulse drives the
products OF the country into every
market on the planet. Congress has
been asked to establish an expert
mental farm in every state and ter
ritory at cost of $4,000 each. 1t
will encourage the tilIers OF the soil
and show them the results Of meth
ods. which they cannot afford to test
for them selves. 1t will be money
well spent. BY all means take good
care Of the farmers.

O tell me not false hearted mortals,
That life is only dream,
Because a few things around us
Do not prove to be what they seem;
That Truth lies mangled and martyred
On altars of falsehood, o, hear
The language of truth telling Ruskin,
Yet speak calmly and clear!
Around us true hearts are beating,
From youth on down to the sage;
And many hero is playing
His part on humanity's stage;
Who is what he is-not the seeming
OF what he is not--and who cries,
"Behold the fair things of beauty,
That all around us uprise ~
True hearts all turn from the pathway
OF falsehood, though brilliant with
blooms;
For they know, at last it's wrathway
OF curses, or hearses and tombs.
The false, though often enhancing,
True hearts always forego;
For they know it leads to charnel,
Where all lie lampless and low.
The light of Truth and Beauty
Shine over our awfulest years.
The wonderful lights that never
Go out in a tempest of tears.
All, noi they never can perish,
The Beautiful, Good and the True;
They are the things we should live for,
The false they will surely subdue.
